Yarn Along

Rainbow knitting and SUN!!

With the crazy weather we've had & the worrying about the car yesterday, I've been knitting like crazy.  This is the start of Ree's Rainbow blanket that she'll get for Christmas. My husband asked if she'd wonder who it's for while I'm knitting it. We don't really have to worry about that because every time I pick it up she asks when I'm going to knit something for her baby. 

I also cast on a pair of Christmas gift socks. But as those are just barely at the cuff I didn't take a picture. Maybe next week!

The pink Puerperium sweater is finished except for the buttons. I'm trying to get Ree to let me have 7 of her buttons from her collection. But as they are the PINK buttons I'm having a hard time with that!

I've been reading the Bell Jar in the evening's but not really getting into it. I found it too dark right now. So after getting about half way through it, when the library sent an e-mail saying it was due back, I brought it back last night (in my car!! That got fixed!!! Whoohoo!!)

I have a few other books here to read but was so tired last night I didn't pick one up!

  3. That will be a perfect blanket for Ree. I had to laugh about the buttons, my daughter Erin, had a button collection too and it was her special treasure...we didn't touch it! :)
